Please note:

1. This upload is based on the JPEG files from a previous upload found here. However, the names of the first 198 files have been adjusted so that all of the pages now appear in the correct order inside the viewer and within all automatic listings. For instance, file “BIB_LENCDX_F3A.jpg” is now called “BIB_LENCDX_F003A.jpg” and “BIB_LENCDX_F18A.jpg” is now called “BIB_LENCDX_F018A.jpg”.
   
2. The previous upload did not contain pages without biblical text, such as the colophons and masoretic pages which appear in the Leningrad Codex before and after the biblical text, including illuminated “carpet pages”. These images have been supplied from Sefaria. The added pages include: 001A, 120B-121A, 326B-327A, and 463B-491B.
   
3. The JPEG files were uploaded here using the “_images” extension, which allows Internet Archive to show the pages in the viewer for convenient browsing and to create convient derivative files for download. This was lacking in the previous upload.
   
4. The high-resolution color photographs of the Leningrad Codex shown at the Sefaria website (e.g. here) are cropped images based upon the original photographs that are contained in this upload. At times the cropping accidentally cut off part of the page and text has been lost (e.g. here).
5. The photographs in this upload do not contain the front cover and the initial inner pages of the manuscript. Those images may be seen in the black-and-white scan.
